so approximately 51% of californians are fucking retards. the number is approximate because all of the absentee and mail-in ballots have not been counted yet. either way, prop 8 is expected to pass. for those of you that don't know, prop 8 in california is the official banning of gay marriage in the state.
doesn't anyone see how completely fucked up it is to grant gays and lesbians the right to marry just months ago, charge them for their licenses (thousands of them), and then tell them to fuck off? or how about the fact that this is clearly a civil rights issue and that we seem to be going back the the ass backwards thinking of separate but equal bullshit that black people had to deal with decades ago? why do we still insist on treating ANY OTHER HUMAN BEING like a second class citizen? i was getting so angry hearing this bullshit spewed in ads on the radio every day at work. i knew it was going to be a close call but i had so much faith that this state, one of the most liberal in the country, would say a big FUCK NO on prop 8. i am severely disappointed.
this makes me so fucking sick. my immediate euphoria over the obama election got completely shat on as the news of this came in.
